Aradia's POV

Morning light spilled through the tall windows like liquid gold, chasing away the last traces of night. I woke slowly, cocooned in warmth that wasn’t my own.

Xior’s arm still lay heavy across my waist, his breath steady and deep against the nape of my neck.

For a moment, I let myself stay there—trapped in the impossible safety of his embrace. His scent wrapped around me, wild and dark, like pine needles crushed under boots after rain.

My body remembered the feel of him from the

  • Fifty Gold For A Human    9

    Aradia's POVDawn crept through the heavy curtains of Xior’s chambers, painting the room in soft golds and pinks. I lay awake, tangled in furs and the heavy weight of his arm across my stomach. My body ached in the most delicious ways—reminders of every kiss, every touch, every breathless moment we’d shared in the dark. Heat rose in my cheeks as memories flooded back: the way he’d whispered my name like a prayer, the raw vulnerability in his eyes when pleasure had torn through him, the way he’d held me afterward as if I might vanish.I turned my head to watch him sleep. Peaceful. Almost boyish without the weight of the crown pressing on his brow. No nightmares. No restless tossing. Just deep, healing rest. Because of me.The realization both humbled and terrified me.I tried to slip from the bed, but his arm tightened instantly. Golden wolf eyes cracked open, still hazy with sleep. “Where do you think you’re going?” His voice was gravel-rough, sending shivers across my bare skin.“E

  • Fifty Gold For A Human    9

    ARADIA POVThe afternoon sun beat down on the palace training grounds, turning the air thick and shimmering. I stood at the edge of the shaded colonnade, half-hidden behind a marble pillar, watching Xior spar with Kade. Shirtless. Sweating. Every movement a display of lethal grace that made my mouth go dry despite myself.Xior’s muscles flexed as he dodged a powerful swing, his scarred torso gleaming. The wooden practice swords cracked together like thunder. He moved like the predator he was—fast, unrelenting. When he disarmed Kade with a twist of his wrist and pinned him briefly with a boot to the chest, the watching warriors cheered.My traitor heart skipped. Two nights of being held by him, and now this. The memory of his body pressed against mine in the dark, his quiet plea, refused to leave me.He looked up suddenly, as if sensing my gaze. Those dark eyes locked on mine across the distance. The intensity there stole my breath. He said something to Kade, then strode toward me, ig

Xior’s arm still lay heavy across my waist, his breath steady and deep against the nape of my neck. For a moment, I let myself stay there—trapped in the impossible safety of his embrace. His scent wrapped around me, wild and dark, like pine needles crushed under boots after rain. My body remembered the feel of him from the night before: solid, unyielding, yet strangely gentle.Then reality crashed back. I was a slave. He was an alpha. And whatever this was, it couldn’t last.I shifted carefully, trying to slip free without waking him. His arm tightened instantly, a low growl rumbling in his chest. Not angry. Possessive. My heart stuttered.“Stay,” he murmured, voice rough with sleep. His eyes cracked open, those endless black depths pinning me in place.“I… the servants,” I whispered. Heat flooded my face. What wo

  • Fifty Gold For A Human    7-

    Aradia's POV The door clicked shut behind the servant, and the silence that followed felt heavier than the blood moon itself. I stood motionless in the center of the room, afraid that if I moved too quickly, the illusion would shatter. This couldn’t be real. Silk against my skin, the faint scent of lavender still clinging to my hair, the massive bed that looked like it could swallow me whole. A slave didn’t sleep in places like this. Slaves slept on floors, in corners, wherever their masters allowed. I crossed to the window on trembling legs and pushed the heavy curtain aside. The gardens below stretched out like something from a dream—silver paths winding between hedges shaped like wolves and crescent moons, fountains bubbling softly under torchlight. Beyond the palace walls, the capital glittered with thousands of lights. So many people. So much life. And here I was, dressed like a lady, breathing air that smelled of polished wood and fresh flowers instead of smoke and fear.

  • Fifty Gold For A Human    𑣲Strange kindness.

    ARADIA POV Maybe he was fattening me to be butchered, when I would be juicy enough to be savoured. Unreasonable thought, but not entirely stupid when I'm in a werewolf pack. I looked around the room for anyone wanting to jump on me or if this was a slaughtering room, because there's absolutely no way he bought me for such a ridiculously high amount to let me live the life of a Lady. In his pack. As a human. Finding nothing, I walked toward the bed, clutching my dress like my life depended on it.My heart pounded as I stood there, unsure whether to sit or keep standing, waiting for someone to wake me from this unbelievable dream.The door sprang open and I jumped, my hands shivering as I turned to see Alpha Xior’s sister Lyra leaning on the door, her free hand turning the lock into place and I swallowed with fear blurring my sight and my throat tightened. I almost passed out when I saw some tricklings of blood on the hem of her dress. “Who are you?" She asked, her vo

  • Fifty Gold For A Human    𑣲Capital.

    Aradia's POV"Come in."Xior's voice startled me. I'd been standing outside the tent for what felt like hours, watching the camp come alive around me. Wolves moved between tents, their eyes tracking me with curiosity and suspicion. I kept my head down and tried to be invisible.I pushed through the tent flap. Xior sat on the edge of his bed, fully dressed now in dark leather and furs. Those black eyes found mine immediately."You will be very useful to me," he said.The words sent ice through my veins. Useful. Of course. I was a slave. A tool he'd bought at market. Whatever strange mercy he'd shown last night, this was the reality. I belonged to him now.I bowed my head. "Yes, my lord.""We're leaving for the capital soon. The maids will prepare you." He stood, moving toward the tent entrance. "Dress her in silk," he called to someone outside. "And pack everything. We leave within the hour."Then he was gone.Two older women entered moments later. They looked at me with the same curio

    Xior's POVVoices pulled me from the darkness.At first, I thought I was dreaming. The voices were distant, muffled, like hearing people talk through water. But they grew clearer as consciousness crept in."Is he alright?" A soft female voice. Worried."He's fine." Kade's voice, closer. "Just let h

    Aradia's POVI couldn't stop staring at his face.When he pulled back his hood, the moonlight had shown me features that looked carved from stone. Strong jaw. Sharp cheekbones. Eyes so dark they were almost black. He was young, maybe mid twenties, but something ancient lived in those eyes. Somethin

    Xior's POV I never intended to buy her. I came to this cursed market for one reason. The healer. I'd spent three years tracking his movements, following whispers and rumors across territories.
